About Dr. Benjamin Gelfant
Dr. Benjamin Gelfant always wanted to combine his interests of both the Arts and of Science in his profession. Plastic Surgery combines these two in a deeply satisfying and profoundly stimulating way. And it continues to do this after decades of practice.
Putting together a difficult diagnosis and a treatment plan that ultimately works is an extraordinary experience. Back when Dr Gelfant was fresh out my internship and doing general practice in a small town in the Interior, he put back together man’s life when he made the complex diagnosis of both diabetes and hyperthyroidism when he had been repeatedly told his diabetes being uncontrolled was his fault. He got him to see a specialist, they treated his thyroid, his diabetes settled down ( he was having repeated, life threatening, hypoglycemic episodes) and his life was immeasurably improved.
He often get the same profound satisfaction in my plastic surgery practice. Sometimes there are complex revisions of prior procedures and sometimes it comes from something as simple as removing a skin cancer under local anaesthetic.
Dr. Gelfant was recently recognized as an IDEAL IMPLANT Preferred Surgeon due to his extensive expertise working with IDEAL IMPLANT® Structured Breast Implants, the latest technology in breast augmentation. With a unique structure surrounding these saline-filled implants, women can achieve beautiful results with zero risk of silent rupture. Dr. Gelfant uses the IDEAL IMPLANT to help women look and feel their best. With the IDEAL IMPLANT, no expensive MRIs are needed, and they come with a lower risk of both capsule contracture and ruptures when compared to other implants.
